Pistachio Blooms with Fruit 3/31/20

I’m so excited. This is the first time I’ve seen my pistachio loaded with nuts. I’m sure the birds will get them all before they completely ripen, but at least I got this shot!!

And here is the same tree three weeks ago, when there were profuse blooms but no nuts that I could see.

Backyard Travels

(Click on photos to enlarge.)

Backyard Adventures

No one to talk to. Nothing to do.
A trip to the kitchen. A jaunt to the loo.

Nowhere to go to. Forbidden to roam.
If I want to travel, I’ll do it at home.

Down in my garden, the flowers and bees
pose for my photos whenever I please.

I record the sights just to prove I have traveled,
clicking the sights as my journey unraveled
